this election just because things are not -- barack obama can't close the deal that another four years is going to be any different than the last four which have not been good. >> you come off the campaign trail and have written a new book, "american patriots," about revolutionary america. why this subject, and why do you think the message resonates so much? >> you were out there and talking earlier about the campaign trail. that's what i talked about. a lot of mitt romney, you know, i've listened to a lot of his speeches. he talks about the same thing. this is a foundational election. this is an election about what we are. well, who are we, and i think that's why i put this book out there, talking about who we are as americans, because barack obama has a different vision than our founders' vision of what america is to be, and that's fine. he wants to transform america, but from what to what, and this book answers the question from what, a country that believes in our founding documents of god-given rights and limited government and free people being able to form families and communities and bu

let the auto industry go bankrupt four years ago in an editorial in "the new york times," and president obama came in with a rescue package, and now the auto industry is up and running. and so the democrats and president obama have been beating romney about the ears with that accusation. but i think romney has a lot of pride in the fact that he was born and brought up in michigan, and he's trying to give president obama the impression that he's going to have to fight to win michigan as john kerry had to fight to win it back in 2004 by only three-and-a-half points. and john kerry was actually campaigning in michigan on the sunday before the election because he was worried he might lose michigan. george w. bush would never admit that he was going to lose michigan, and i don't think mitt romney ever will either. so mitt romney's challenge is if he can't win michigan, and i think he still thinks he might be able to, he wants to come close. he wants this to be like 2004, not 2008 where john mccain pulled out of the state a month before the election and ended up getting blown
